Investment reflects a commitment to expand regional data management services and support local government and businesses

Informatica, an enterprise cloud data management leader, today launched its Intelligent Data Management Cloud™ (IDMC) in the Middle East, a first for the region. The investment includes establishing a new Point of Delivery (PoD) in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. The PoD further solidifies Informatica’s presence in the Middle East and reflects its commitment to support local, scalable cloud-first data management services.

The investment underpins Informatica’s commitment to the UAE government’s vision. Last October, during GITEX Global, Informatica signed a multi-year, strategic framework agreement with Abu Dhabi Digital Authority (ADDA) to support its Data Enablement Program to offer data management services to government entities in Abu Dhabi. This aims to transform Abu Dhabi into a data-driven state to drive economic growth and accelerate the digital economy across the Emirate. With a regional PoD, Informatica can better support local partners and organizations with its cloud data management platform in line with local regulations.
